Uh oh, another where do I put the * argument.

I do recall that Dan can stop it if it starts though, he had a really good example of why it should be int *variable instead of int* variable.

Of course as he said, C will treat it the same way.

Speaking of an asterisk (*):

I remember during the Windows days where you need to type a password before you login which displays * on the password field.

My friend cant get into the Windows... and suddenly asked me: How many * is your password?

hehe

You would be setting up a function that returns a pointer to char. You can set up pointers to functions, though. Off the top of my head: I think it would be:

char *(Dummy::*ptrname)(blah blah);

( I can't see things between code tags, so the names might not be right)
